The entirety of this post is premised on a prediction I am making that there will some kind of showdown/battle in Twin Peaks. That could, of course, prove to be absolute bollocks. If there's anything we've learned with this show, it's that (for the most part) making predictions can be a fool's errand.

Having said that, I do think things are coming to a head. We've seen strange things (strange even for Twin Peaks) occurring in the town, and I think Mr. C is on the way. Not to mention whatever's up with Sarah Palmer.

Now in episode 14 we saw Freddie Sykes and his green glove of strength, Naido landing (literally) in the woods outside Twin Peaks, and Deputy Andy glimpsing some knowledge. The Fireman is assembling his army. He is moving the chess pieces into place.

Who, then, do you think will be on the side of good when things go down? Here are my picks:

Andy
Naido
Hawk
Freddie Sykes
Sheriff Frank Truman
Dr. Amp/Jacoby
Nadine

 

What say you? Or is this theory just a load of bunk?

An additional question I have, will Sarah stand beside or across from Mr. C cuz so far she seems to be his only potential real adversary. If they are on the same side, Fireman's army is screwed.

Matthew, I think you may be able to add Bud Mullins and the Mitchum Brothers.

I think Mr. C is probably aiming too high and wanting MOM's position. She may care nothing for the "good guys" but she strikes me as one who will NOT be challenged. My showdown guess is that evil defeats evil and then the good guys send evil packing (or do they?). I just had a thought...if Mother and the Fireman are some sort of cosmic siblings, that would make him the Uncle.

Wait!  Make WHO the uncle.  I got lost somewhere.

You think they will travel up to Twin Peaks?

Look, mate, I realize you're from the UK, and everything there is fairly close, but Nevada to Washington state ain't a quick trip.

I have a fairly good grasp of geography.  I also have a brother living in Washington State, have travelled a fair chunk of the globe myself (USA, Brazil, Africa, most of Europe) and I get that it's not like going out to buy milk.

But - and here's the thing - the Mitchums are already halfway to thinking there's something "other" about Dougie Jones.  A couple more dreams and they'll be convinced he's the Messiah.  In any case, I'm not certain they'll travel all the way to Twin Peaks but they could certainly give Coop some much needed backup in Vegas.  Same with Mullins.  He knows there's something wrong with the whole Vegas cops scene and he thinks the sun shines out of Dougies bum at the moment.  He's not a young man, granted, but he's resourceful and nobody's fool.

OTOH, they may have no more part to play in the story.  Except, that is, for the enigma that is Candie.

Addendum:

They could, of course, fly there.  I'm sure between them they could rustle up enough change for a flight.  You never know, what with the Mitchums being multi millionaires, they may even have their own plane.  A stretch, I know, I mean, who ever heard of rich people owning planes? 😉

Nah there's definitely something more about Candie. The other two are for show but Candie has been pushed too far forward for her not to contribute something in these last episodes

It's not really a looooong trip either. 16-20 hours drive depending on your midfullness of local traffic rules.

And I'm pretty sure the Mitchums have a plane. If not they could all hitch a ride on Alaska Air.  Couple hours into Spokane, an hour or 2 drive to TP.  It's not like flying into Antarctica or something.

Even if it was a road trip, I somehow don't think they'd be driving.  They'd be in one of their stretch limos, drinking fizz and chomping on cherry pie.

Of course, it'll all go south when they get there and Sarah says, "He's not the Messiah, he's a very naughty boy".

No, of course THEY wouldn't be driving.

It'll really go south when Sarah takes off her face, commandeers all their vodka, and sets her llama after them.

And then they can all sit down and watch Monty Python together.

Don't forget about:

  • Bobby 
  • Carl Rodd (with his whistling skills)  

What about:

  • Ed Hurley 
  • James?

James will be to busy sitting in a corner singing emo songs.

He's an artist not a warrior!

That's why I put the ? after his name.  I'd like to think he'd be there, but you can't be sure.
